Abstract

This session describes an ongoing project to introduce early-career colleagues to the emerging National Community of Practice in Computer Science Education by the provision of a programme of continued professional development (CPD). The project is supported by the BCS Academy for Computing and supports colleagues who are new to teaching in UK universities. To date, a project steering group has been established and the pilot training programme ran (for attendees for 10 Universities). The session will explore progress to date and similar/potential initiatives in other disciplines and practice sharing.
